GeoGet - A free GSAK alternative

[Mr.Yuck]

OCNA Challenge caches are coming in 2 days. This is Sunday morning, and I'm feverishly working on the first 17 as we speak, for release on Tuesday, April 28th. Why then? I figured exactly one week to the day after the Groundspeak Challenge Cache moratorium would be kinda cute. In case you hadn't heard the leaked info, they will be owned by a special admin account "OCNAChallenges", and will be locationless, so to speak. You qualify, you get to log it. Ironically enough, something similar has been proposed in the Groundspeak forums as a way to keep them alive after the one year moratorium. There are many other proposals too of course. By regular players I mean, not Groundspeak employees.

So here ya' go GeoGet I'd describe it as a GSAK clone, written by a developer from the cache-crazed Czech Republic. Our version of a "my finds pocket query" works fine in it. Tested with a gpx gc file.

I'm no expert, but this would be the place to discuss using GeoGet.

I barely scratched the surface with gsak and lost interest in days. In sure there is a lot that can be done but I didn't see the need for much of it.

Pleased to see an alternative. What will the gsak years have to complain about? In sure they will find something.

I might give out a try too see if it can maintain my interest.

Thanks MrYuck for the info about GeoGet. Looking forward to the challenges (not that I will qualify for many with only 4 OCNA finds so far), and yes I noticed that suggestion came up in the GS forums. I pipped in about the OCNA challenges but decided against it. But the timing is quite interesting.

Don't worry, there are hide challenges too.

Do you know if there is any workaround for us Mac users?
